I'd thought of heading over to SPT last night--love both of those readers but have also seen them read several times, and so ended up staying with the folks. I'll plan a weekend up here soon that's more or less all poetry all the time. But thanks for thinking of me! Joan Jett is kind of tempting...

Help Protect Bees

The work of pollinators (such as bees, butterflies, and humming birds) ensures full harvests of many agricultural crops and contributes to healthy plants everywhere...As landscapes are converted from wild to managed lands, many pollinators’ habitats may be destroyed or fragmented. More than half of the food we eat depends on bees and other animals for pollination. Most of the fruit and vegetable producing plants we rely on need honeybee pollination to thrive--which is why the disappearance of honeybees known as Colony Collapse Disorder is a critical environmental issue.
